Given: AB, BC, CD and AD are tangents to the circle with centre O at Q, P, S and R respectively. AB = 29 cm,
AD = 23, DS = 5 cm and  B  90 Construction: Join PQ.
We know that, the lengths of the tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.
DS  DR  5 cm
 AR  AD  DR  23 cm  5 cm  18 cm

9. Prove that the parallelogram circumscribing a circle is a rhombus.
Solution:
Given: ABCD be a parallelogram circumscribing a circle with centre O.

To prove: ABCD is a rhombus.
We know that the tangents drawn to a circle from an exterior point are equal in length. Therefore, AP = AS,
BP = BQ, CR = CQ and DR = DS. Adding the above equations,
AP + BP + CR + DR = AS + BQ + CQ + DS
(AP + BP) + (CR + DR) = (AS + DS) + (BQ + CQ)
AB + CD = AD + BC
2AB = 2BC
(Since, ABCD is a parallelogram so AB = DC and AD = BC)
AB = BC
Therefore, AB = BC = DC = AD.
Hence, ABCD is a rhombus.

11.In fig., a circle is inscribed in triangle ABC touches its sides AB, BC and AC at points D, E and F
respectively. If AB = 12 cm, BC = 8 cm and AC = 10 cm, then find the length of AD, BE and CF.
Solution:
Given: AB = 12 cm, BC = 8 cm and AC = 10 cm.
Let, AD = AF = x cm, BD = BE = y cm and CE = CF = z cm
(Tangents drawn from an external point to the circle are equal in length)
 2(x + y + z) = AB + BC + AC = AD + DB + BE + EC + AF + FC = 30 cm
 x + y + z = 15 cm
AB = AD + DB = x + y = 12 cm
z = CF = 15 - 12 = 3 cm
AC = AF + FC = x + z = 10 cm
y = BE = 15 - 10 = 5 cm
x = AD = x + y + z - z - y = 15 - 3 - 5 = 7 cm

Thus, there are 128 three-digit natural numbers that are divisible by 7.

28. In fig., l and m are two parallel tangents to a circle with centre O, touching the circle at A and B
respectively. Another tangent at C intersects the line l at D and m at E. Prove that DOE  90
Solution:
Given: l and m are two parallel tangents to the circle with centre O touching the circle at A and B
respectively. DE is a tangent at the point C, which intersects l at D and m at E.
To prove:  DOE = 90
Construction: Join OC.
Proof:
In  ODA and  ODC,

OA = OC (Radii of the same circle)
AD = DC (Length of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal)
DO = OD (Common side)
 ODA   ODC (SSS congruence criterion)
DOA  COD .........(1)
Similarly,  OEB   OEC
EOB  COE .........(2)
Now, AOB is a diameter of the circle. Hence, it is a straight line.
 DOA +  COD +  COE +  EOB = 180
From (1) and (2), we have:
2  COD + 2  COE = 180
  COD +  COE = 90
  DOE = 90
Hence, proved.
29. Sum of the areas of two squares is 400 Cm2. If the difference of their perimeters is 16 cm, find the sides
of the two squares.
Solution:
Let the sides of the two squares be x cm and y cm where x > y.
Then, their areas are x2 and y2 and their perimeters are 4x and 4y.
By the given condition:
x2 + y2 = 400 … (1)
and 4x - 4y = 16
 4(x - y) = 16 x - y = 4
 x = y + 4 ... (2)
Substituting the value of x from (2) in (1), we get:
(y + 4)2 + y2 = 400
 y2 + 16 + 8y + y2 = 400
 2y2 + 16 + 8y = 400
 y2 + 4y - 192 = 0
 y2 + 16y - 12y - 192 = 0
 y(y + 16) - 12 (y + 16) = 0
 (y + 16) (y - 12) = 0
 y = -16 or y = 12
Since, y cannot be negative, y = 12.
So, x = y + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16
Thus, the sides of the two squares are 16 cm and 12 cm.

31. Prove that the tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of
contact.
Solution:
Given: A circle with centre O and a tangent XY to the circle at a point P

To Prove: OP is perpendicular to XY.
Construction: Take a point Q on XY other than P and join OQ.
Proof: Here the point Q must lie outside the circle as if it lies inside the tangent XY will become secant to
the circle.
Therefore, OQ is longer than the radius OP of the circle, That is, OQ > OP.
This happens for every point on the line XY except the point P.
So OP is the shortest of all the distances of the point O to the points on XY.
And hence OP is perpendicular to XY.
Hence, proved.
32. Find the number of terms of the AP -12, -9, -6,... 12. If 1 is added to each term of this AP, then find the
sum of all terms of the AP thus obtained.
Solution:
Given AP is -12, -9, -6, ..., 21
First term, a = -12
Common difference, d = 3
Let 21 be the nth term of the A.P.
21 = a + (n - 1)d
 21 = -12 + (n - 1)  3
 33 = (n - 1)  3
 n = 12
Sum of the terms of the AP = S12
n 12
 2a  n  1 d   24  11  3  54

If 1 is added to each term of the AP, the sum of all the terms of the new AP will increase by n, i.e., 12.
Sum of all the terms of the new AP = 54 + 12 = 66
33. Two poles of equal heights are standing opposite each other on either side of the roads, which is 80 m
wide. From a point between them on the road, the angles of elevation of the top of the poles are 60 and
30 respectively. Find the height of the poles and the distances of the point from the poles.
Solution:
Let AC and BD be the two poles of the same height h m.
Given AB = 80 m
Let AP = x m, therefore, PB = (80 - x) m
In  APC,
